Things You Don't See Anymore Part 3

this thought about it yesterday
View attachment 4679183
I remember that show. It came and went so fast, that nobody else seems to recall it. I've been looking to watch this show again but there doesn't seem to be any source to do so. Probably better to have fond memories than to be utterly disappointed with what was probably a low level production of a silly premise.

it was created by the same guy who made Gillian's Island and the Brady Bunch
 
Great Googly!

Don’t get that theme song stuck in your head!

It’ll hang around forever!

I know a guy who told me that.

:whistle:

There were 2 different theme songs for that show with the same music. 1 when the astronauts went back in time and 1 when the cave people came to the future.

Here are both of them. You can get them both stuck in your head.

Notice Imogene Coca's character was called Shag and then changed to Shad.

It’s amazing how many early toys were based on guns, war and playing pretend violence. Not surprising though because a lot of us here grew up with WWll, Korea and VietNam close in the rear view mirror. Odd thing is real violence was not as prevalent in that society. We knew it was pretend. Hmmm…carry on.
And we played cops 'n' robbers and cowboys 'n' Indians. We were constantly "killing" each other!;):D
 
The only thing I remember about that show is the theme song. I also remember that, as kids, we used to sing, "It's about time, it's about space, it's about time I slapped your face!":D


Never saw the show or heard the song.


However, our local version was , "It's about time, it's about space, it's about time you washed your face!"



Never knew where it came from!

The 1st electronic synthesizer released in 1947…it’s heard on Del Shannon’s “Runaway”, The Tornados “Telstar” and “Baby You’re a Rich Man” by the Beatles. John reportedly rolled an orange up and down the keyboard during the recording!
Listen to the trilling keyboard in the song.


Oops I thought I was posting this in Unusual Rock Trivia but you don’t see them today so I’ll leave it here! Ha!
